ALEXANDRIA MARKET, April p, 1857
There is more liberal offering of Flour, but
prices are without material change. We again
note constant, not to say active, demand for per-
fectly sound hinty grades of milling Wheat, and
figures for such lots are well sustained but ordi-
nary and damaged samples are tame and sluggish
and sell as to condition; hence the wide range in
quotations, sales being made from 90 to Soc per
bushel Corn, Rye and Oats are firm. Produce
is in light receipt and good demand.
